How in the world are so many people so unprepared for this? And I’m not even saying “they didn’t save.” How is it a week or two before school starts, and the parents have no idea how they are going to pay for it?


When my older child was a junior in high school I saw the fellow parents start getting competitive about where their kid was going to go to school.

I laughed my arse off when 80% of them ended up at the state school once they found out what the ivy league schools cost now and the fact that they don't really give merit based scholarships anymore.

Help your kids, be there for them, give effort for them. Thats the only way anything gets better and get rid of this "DO IT ON YOUR OWN!!!" boomer nonsense.


I'm with you on this one. I always found the parents who help their children who help themselves to be true selfless leaders. Imagine if this world were full of parents who strived to get their children into a better life than they had, and the cycle continued.
